When you constantly profess your hate for the US it doesn't have to be considered equatable it is considered an established stance toward the US.

That's illogical...No one even in this thread has professed any such hate for the U.S or the West.
This "established" stance is coming from your own confirmation bias that anybody whom criticizes U.S foreign policy or western civilization amounts to
absolute hatred towards either.
I don't deny however that there are members on this site who do have a hatred towards the west...

You said to intrptr; SO your hate of the west is so bad you can't see what is really going on around you...amazing.

No it comes from actual comments, not my own confirmation bias.

So you admit that any comments criticizing the U.S or the west are equatable to a stance of hatred...?
If I criticize any aspect of the west be it culture,economics,politics and etc. By your logic I'm suddenly a hater of the west?

Then why is it so hard to believe that what I am saying is true, since you yourself don't deny the fact that there are some on ATS that hate the US?

I didn't say I don't believe you that criticism can sometimes be attributed to a sentiment of hate..All I said was your reasoning is just illogical as
the two terms are not equatable all the time.
